Why are controls so important? At Worcester, we believe in providing heating engineers with a range of choices that will enable them to provide the best solution for their customers. This philosophy is reflected in the breadth of our controls offering and our continued investment in developing new control technologies.
Code for Sustainable Homes The Code for Sustainable Homes, which has been in effect since April 2007, introduced minimum standards in new homes for energy and water efficiency. The Energy-related Products Directive (ErP) The ErP Directive covers all products that consume energy, such as boilers, heat pumps, solar thermal etc. It also includes controls, which are defined using ‘classes’.
Complete controls range Worcester offers a wide range of controls from basic mechanical programmers to an internet-enabled smart control. Whatever the end user’s specific preferences and budget, there is a Worcester control model to meet their needs. Simple-to-operate mechanical timer range MT10 mechanical timer Analogue control for setting daily times for central heating. The heating will start and finish at the same times every day.
Sophisticated digital and wireless programmers and room thermostats Comfort range The Greenstar Comfort controls range from a plug-in programmer to an advanced wireless programmer and room thermostat.
What is ErP? The ErP Directive, which is a new regulation set by the European Union, is designed to drive improvements in the efficiency and performance of heating and hot water products. Its purpose is to ensure that end users are aware of the level of energy efficiency inherent within their appliances. As such, the Directive will help improve the overall efficiency of the housing stock, while enabling homeowners to reduce their energy bills.
What about systems that contain What about controls? different products? The ErP Directive covers all products that In these circumstances, there is a responsibility to consume energy, such as boilers, heat pumps, provide a package label when combining a heating solar thermal etc. It also includes controls, appliance with a temperature control and/or solar which are defined using ‘classes’.
The Greenstar Comfort controls range Worcester’s new Greenstar Comfort range of intelligent boiler controls has been developed by Worcester with the help of feedback from installers and end-users. As a result, they are our most advanced and simple to use controls yet – being easier to install and simpler to use, while producing a wider choice of programming options. The thermostats communicate with the housing projects, assisting developers boiler via a very reliable wireless signal.

Comfort twin channel programmer This is a twin channel programmer that plugs directly into the boiler and requires a separate room thermostat (not included).
Comfort I RF twin channel programmer and room thermostat The Comfort I RF twin channel model is an intelligent programmer that plugs into the boiler and is supplied with a separate room thermostat for adjustment of room set-points temperature.
Comfort II RF twin channel programmer The Comfort II RF is the top of the range control with a plug-in RF receiver on the boiler and a wall-mounted programmer and room thermostat combined in one unit.
Installing and commissioning the Greenstar Comfort range of controls Room thermostat mounting The accuracy of a room thermostat is dependent upon the installation location. Any radiator in the same room as the room thermostat should NOT have a thermostatic radiator valve fitted. The room thermostat should be installed so that the overall temperature of the property is monitored, for example hallways or landings, and not be installed in a living room or room with supplementary heating.
The advanced intelligent controls range Worcester offers a range of wired intelligent heating controls, designed to enhance the integral efficiency of our current Greenstar boilers and feature weather and load compensation.
